Selling My 84 Jeep CJ7, I really planned on keeping it and building as I went, but career change, time, etc, best choice is to let her go.

It has a 4wd hardware fiberglass tub, and a original rust free metal fenders, hood, grille, and windshield frame. It is camo wrapped with an expensive kit in Advantage Max 4HD.  There is some wrinkles in it but it still looks great and always draws attention wherever it's goes. Tub is white gel coat underneath, and hood fenders are original black paint.  Frame is very solid and has almost no rust. There was two small spots in the back that were thin, and I welded a 2"x2"  square patch over it to keep it from getting bad. ( see pics) The only other issue I had with the frame is a bunch of holes drilled toward the front, could have been from an old plow frame? I planned to just bolt or weld a plate over it, but that will be up to the buyer!

The entire drivetrain was removed from a 1976 CJ5 with only 89k original miles. 
It is an AMC 304, freshly painted, newly rebuilt carb ( receipt from mechanic), brand new Summit fenderwell headers, purple hornies side pipes. Runs Great, runs about 80 psi oil cold, and 8-10 psi on the hottest day. Never overheats. Trans is T150 3 speed, shifts great, sometimes will pop out of first gear, but I think the floor needs trimming, not necessarily an issue w/ Trans. Dana 20 Tcase. AMC 20 rear/dana 30 front 3.54 gears. It really isn't geared for crawling, but will cruise right along with traffic on the highway no problem.

Drives straight and true, had many new front end parts installed over the last few years.
Rancho shocks at all 4 corners.
All stock suspension components.
3" Body lift with metal plate to stiffen body mounts on tub.

33x12.50 Dayton timberline ATs with only about 700 miles on them.
15x10 wheels just sandblasted and powder coated black.

Has HD rear bumper, with swing out tire carrier, receiver hitch, and mounts for DRing shackles.
Full Roll Cage
Tuffy Security Console with Sony Explod CD player
Original AM radio still in uncut dash!
Marine 6x9 speakers in custom boxes that mount between cage and rear fenderwell.
HD front bumper with push bar.
New Radiator
Bestop trail max seats.
Fold and tumble back seat from a YJ.
Probably lots I'm forgetting.

Known Issues or Things to tell:

Currently running on Antique Plates. Should easily pass a PA safety inspection if you choose to go back to regular registration.
Emissions w/ headers/ side pipes will be the issue, which is why I have antique plates.
Plates will go w/ the Jeep.

Minor drips here and there, but nothing major.

All gauges work except fuel gauge.

YJ Column, and dash wiring. Headlight switch mounted where factory clock was.

YJ heater box and blower switch.. Heat works but you have to manually move levers on box, CJ to YJ cable ends are different, I'm sure something can be done to make them work. Heater core left a few drips of antifreeze on floor the other day, so figure on having to replace it. It hasn't leaked lately, but something was going on??

Rear bumper needs supports welded back to frame if you want to tow with it. The rear crossmember is thin from the factory and that's all it's bolted to right now, so it's a little wobbly  Roll cage needs tied in to frame in the front.

Fenders are mounted about an 1" to low on tub, so you may want to re drill holes and move them up to make it look spot on, it never bothered me though.

304 has a manual choke installed, so it's a bit cold blooded.

Brake master cylinder will need replaced. It's dripping out of the back seal, not real bad, and ive been driving it like it is, but will need it soon.
(Manual brakes)

Everything works, and battery is new, and if it sits for a month it will still start right up, but wiring is a little messy, if you want it perfect

I have a factory original Kayline soft top with doors for it. It's in great shape, with just about a 1" crack on drivers window, from kids leaning something on it in garage. I have never had it on the jeep, and it looks like its never been used! I'm fairly sure all hardware bows, etc are there.

Whatever extra parts I can find for it.

Best top bikini top. ( black)

** I also have a new in box Howell fuel injection system, that was over $1200 new, and a complete painless wire harness brand new. I am not including them as of now, but if the auction goes high enough, I will, or ill offer the buyer a great deal on them.

** Also have a T176 4 Speed, and a Dana 300 with under 100k miles,  that I was going to install. Again not included right now, but will include them if auction goes high enough, or will make a great deal to buyer if wanted.

** If anyone wonders**  If Jeep Hits $4500 or better,  I will include the Howell fuel injection, and the T176/Dana 300. 

It's not a show jeep by any means, but it's a great driver, needing only some minor issues worked out. It can be a great trail jeep or a hunting rig too.

I've tried to list everything I know about it, and will answer any questions to the best of my ability.

I have receipts for many of the parts/work, not all but quite a few. 

I will work with a shipper, but arrangements are up to buyer.

I can put it on my trailer and deliver it, within reason, but price/ arrangements must be made in advance.

You can probably drive it home too, but I haven't had it on more than a 200 mile trip.

It's listed as 1980, because for some reason eBay will not accept my vin#

The jeep is a wide track 1984, titled as 1984, and the vin# is

If you need it

No reserve!

Trucks with the best gas mileage for 2024

Thu, May 9 2024

There's no denying that pickup trucks are an integral part of our culture. They've been instrumental in building our infrastructure and giving the public access to remote locations and myriad recreation activities. Trucks aren't known for being particularly fuel efficient though, with boxy silhouettes and considerable weight negatively affecting their gas mileage ratings. The times are changing and not only are trucks getting more economical, but there are also several new smaller alternatives. An efficient tuck doesn't have to by tiny, though. Some of the trucks with the best gas mileage look classically bulky. What is the most fuel-efficient truck? So what's the most fuel-efficient pickup truck on sale in the U.S? It depends on which class of trucks you're looking at. For this list, we're focusing only on internal-combustion trucks. The small crop of all-electric trucks are certainly worth considering, but it's not so easy comparing EVs to ICE trucks here. In most cases, these trucks are the two-wheel-drive versions since they return the best mileage, but there are a few four- or all-wheel-drive models that we call out.  Not surprisingly, the revival of the compact pickup has altered the truck landscape. In many cases, these petite trucks may be just the right size for many shoppers. That's great because most owners would rather not lug around a ton of weight that they don't necessarily need. The simplest answer to the question posed above is the Ford Maverick Hybrid. It tops this list of fuel-efficient truckswith an impressive 37-mpg EPA estimate for combined city and highway miles. With only 191 horsepower and a continuously variable transmission, it's not as capable off-road or for towing as other trucks, but if you just need something to haul stuff around, you really can't do any better. Its 4.5-foot bed has a slight advantage over its only rival, the Hyundai Santa Cruz, which has a 4-foot bed and an estimate of 23 mpg. So now we know what truck uses the least amount of gas. 2024 Ford Maverick 2.5-liter hybrid powertrain 37 mpg combined (EPA estimate) What is the most fuel-efficient midsize truck? While not as popular as their full-size siblings, midsize strike a good balance of utility and drivability. They’re easier to navigate in a crowded parking lot, and fit down more trails earning a set of Arizona pinstripes.

Jeep CEO details the next Wrangler's push for efficiency

Sun, Jul 10 2016

Jeep CEO Mike Manley's brief for the new Wrangler is a simple one – don't mess it up. But in that pursuit of keeping things proper, the affable Englishman has revealed that the brand is trying to walk a fine line while bringing its most iconic model into the 21st century. That's most important on the car's exterior. Like other long-serving American vehicles, the Wrangler is defined by its image. But even with aerodynamics playing a bigger role on the JK's successor, Manley was adamant during a conversation with Automotive News that the boxiness will carry on. "You have to be very careful with the aero of Wrangler, because at the end of the day, it needs to be recognizable as a Wrangler," Manley told AN. "To some extent that restricts you on some of the aero that you can do." Spy photos show a more rakish windshield and fascia, both key moves to lessen the aerodynamic impact of the Jeep's traditionally brick-like design. "But with weight and a number of the changes that we've made, you're going to see that we've really pushed that vehicle forward in terms of its fuel economy." The context of that last sentence points to a weight savings, something Automotive News backs up. While the Wrangler won't go all-aluminum, its frame is going to be lighter and stronger, and it will use aluminum for certain "hang-on" body parts. But this push for weight savings won't extend to the Wrangler's intangibles. It'll still ride on a body-on-frame architecture and feature solid axles at both ends, for example. Combine Manley's comments and AN's reports with news that the Wrangler will use an eight-speed automatic and offer diesel and four-cylinder turbo power in its next generation, and it's clear Jeep is trying to make the biggest strides in decades without alienating its die-hard fans.
